It's always fun to get to visit Johnson Space Center.  There are so many interesting stories.  This is is about a program designed to measure the psychological, physiological and other impacts of isolation and confinement similar to what future astronauts might experience on Mars.  Four astronaut-like volunteers will soon spend a year inside the habitat which includes a "sandbox" filled with red-colored sand that looks a little like Mars's surface.  I did a stand-up in the middle of the story standing in the sand.
